After Hours Networking

After Hours Business Networking is held once a month, usually on the third Thursday of the month, from 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM, at the location of the hosting business or organization.

Our After Hours Business Networking is a FREE monthly event that is open to the public. Our host businesses generously sponsor an evening of refreshments, learning, and networking. And, you don't need to be a business owner to attend! Curious about the businesses hosting an event? Come on out!

Bring a colleague, business associate, a favorite client, a friend, or a neighbor -- our After Hours Business Networking works because we bring together a mix of people who might be your next employer, employee, customer, or trusted collaborator!
